How We Handle Personal Information
This Privacy Policy explains what information GimkitApp.com may process when you browse the public website, contact us, or use account-based features that we operate, including Questrivo where applicable.
It also explains why information may be processed, when service providers may handle it on our behalf, and the choices available to you.
Privacy by Purpose
We aim to process information only for clear website, account, security, communication, analytics, or advertising purposes that apply to the service you are actually using.
Scope of This Policy
This policy applies to personal information processed through GimkitApp.com and website features that we operate. It does not describe the privacy practices of Gimkit or any other independent third-party platform merely because our content discusses or links to that service.
When you follow a link to a third-party website, that provider's own privacy policy applies to information it collects.
Information You Choose to Provide
If you email us or otherwise contact us, we may receive the information you choose to include, such as your name, email address, the page you are asking about, and the contents of your message.
Please do not send passwords, payment-card numbers, private student records, or other sensitive credentials through our general contact channels.
Questrivo Account & Workspace Information
Questrivo is an account-based learning workspace operated through GimkitApp.com. When you use Questrivo features, information associated with the account may be processed so the workspace can function.
Depending on the features you use, this may include:
- authentication identifiers such as an email address and user ID;
- learning kits, questions, classes, assignments, and content you save;
- practice, participation, progress, results, rewards, or analytics associated with the account;
- notifications, collaboration records, settings, and other workspace preferences.
Questrivo's current architecture uses Supabase authentication and database authorization controls for important account-specific data. The exact information processed depends on the features that are live and that you choose to use.
Technical & Usage Information
Website hosting, security, analytics, and similar infrastructure may automatically process technical information needed to deliver and protect the site. This can include IP address, browser or device information, referring page, requested URL, timestamps, and basic interaction or diagnostic information.
Cookies and similar browser technologies are explained separately in our Cookie Policy rather than duplicated here.
How We Use Information
Information may be processed where relevant to:
- operate, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the website;
- provide account-based Questrivo features requested by the user;
- save content, settings, progress, or account state where a feature requires it;
- respond to messages, corrections, and support-related enquiries;
- understand website performance and improve usability where analytics are enabled;
- prevent abuse, fraud, unauthorized access, or technical misuse;
- support advertising or measurement where those services are enabled and permitted.
Service Providers
We may rely on service providers for functions such as hosting, authentication, database infrastructure, security, analytics, email delivery, or advertising. Those providers may process information only to the extent needed to provide the relevant service or as otherwise permitted by their terms and applicable law.
We do not treat a third-party platform discussed in an article as our service provider merely because we write about it.
Google Services, Advertising & Measurement
GimkitApp.com may use Google services, including advertising services such as Google AdSense when advertising is enabled. Advertising and measurement technologies can involve cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device information, or other identifiers.
Third parties, including Google, may place or read cookies in a visitor's browser or use similar technologies as a result of ad serving or measurement on the site. Where consent is legally required, non-essential advertising or measurement storage should be handled through the applicable consent mechanism.
Data Retention
We aim to keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including account operation, user-requested features, security, dispute handling, or applicable legal obligations.
Different types of information may therefore have different retention periods. Account-linked information may need to remain while an account or saved workspace feature remains active.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to reduce unauthorized access, alteration, loss, or misuse of information. For account-specific Questrivo data, the current architecture uses authentication and database-level authorization controls such as Row Level Security for important protected records.
No website, database, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so users should also protect their own devices, email accounts, and credentials.
Children, Students & School Use
Our public educational content may be read by students, teachers, families, and other visitors. We do not ask users to send sensitive student information through the general contact email.
Where an account-based learning feature is used in a school or by a younger learner, the responsible adult, school, or organization should consider the age, consent, and student-data requirements that apply to that use. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, contact us so the situation can be reviewed.
Your Privacy Rights & Choices
Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights relating to personal information, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, restriction, or information about certain processing activities.
You may also be able to manage non-essential cookie or advertising choices through the site's consent controls where available, and through your browser or device settings.
We may need reasonable information to verify a request before acting on account-specific data.
External Websites
Our articles may link to Gimkit, Blooket, Kahoot, Quizizz, Google, or other independent websites. Their privacy practices are controlled by those organizations, not by GimkitApp.com. Review the relevant provider's privacy information before submitting personal data to it.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy when website features, service providers, data practices, or legal requirements change. The current version will be published on this page with an updated date.
